IPhone 4 synching problem

I have tried synching 3 times this morning. The synch goes on for a while but as it gets to uploading pics (usually the last step) it stops and says it can't synch because file can't be found. Any clues? I've never had any problems with this until today.

Hi there. I just experienced the same thing this evening when I tried to sync. It tries to finish up but right at when it says "Copying photos" the same error message shows up.
"The iPhone "***" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found"
Did you ever figure out what was causing it?
Thanks,
J

  • ITunes/ipad/iPhone synching problems

    I have an ipad and iPhone synched to iTunes via the same apple ID. Ive recently deleted a number of tracks in itunes, the ipad syncs correctly and updates the deleted items but the deleted tracks are not being removed from the iPhone? The ipad matches iTunes but the iPhone now does not. How can I get the iPhone to sync correctly and update the deleted tracks?

    Wanted to follow up on this as the problem has now been solved (thanks to Apple's excellent support). I had purchased the extended care package when I upgraded my Mac (based on prior experience I knew it would be money well spent). That allowed me to call Apple support and ask them for their help. After removing a set of cache files located in my iPhoto application I'm not able to sync both my iPad and my iPhone. Issue resolved.

  • IPhone Synching Problems

    I have the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5.  My last backup on my iPhone 4 was 7/20/11.  After that, my laptop crashed & by the time I got it repaired, iTunes WOULD NOT LET ME SYNC my phone.  I have tried everything everyone has suggested.  AT&T told me when I purchased iPhone 5 that ALL I had to do is open iTunes, right click on my phone and choose backup.  Phone starts synching.  When it finishes, I add this data to my new iPhone 5.  The only problem is that when I open the backup file and look at data put on my iPhone 5, it stops at 7/20/11.  Having same problem with iPad.  I thought Apple was suppose to be "SO USER FRIENDLY.  Someone please help me!

    Yes.  It stats backing up, runs forever, then I get the message that it can't be backed up to computer. When I look in folder where backups are stored, there will be a new folder w/the date & time I started back up. All the files in folder only go up to 7/20/11 which is the date of my last backup & update.

  • IPhone Synch Problems

    I just restored my daughter's iPhone from iCloud and there are songs purchased under old iTunes accounts that are "stuck" in a perpetual synch mode. How can I delete these songs to complete the restore? We cannot remember the passwords for some of these old iTunes accounts (and the email addresses are no longer valid).

    If you did not sync after that, restore from your last backup. If you did, use Time Machine to go back, restore the backup folder and use the backup to restore your info. Read this article about details. iPhone and iPod touch: About backups
    iTunes only keeps one backup created during the sync process for each device. If you restore the iPhone or iPod touch and choose to set up as a new device from the Set Up your iPhone (or iPod touch) screen, iTunes will automatically sync and create a new, empty backup that will replace your previous backup. If you change your mind and want to restore to your previous state, you will have to retrieve your previous device backup from Time Machine (on your Mac), or other backup solution you regularly use. If you have Mac OS X 10.5.5 or later and use Time Machine, you may use Time Machine to find a previous backup.

  • Im having iphone synching problems

    hi i really need your help!
    i downloaded the new iphone version via settings in my iphone. i got some new music and i need to synch my music. when i plug my iphone into my computer, it says "cannot use iphone because it requires itunes version 10.6.3 or later." so i went to itunes.com and downloaded version Itunes 7. once it was finished downloading i clicked on it and another thing popped up and said "this software required mac OS x version 10.6.8 or later. i searched for any software updates on my computer and it says "this computer uses version 10.6" or something. i have no idea what to do!!!!!
    HELP!!!!!
    thank you

    No 3GS sold in the US was ever unlocked officially. Any attempts to update a hacked or un-officially unlocked iPhone will likely result in it being relocked to the original carrier.

  • ICal and iPhone synch problem

    I have the birthdays setup in my iCal in the address book and it shows properly in the iCal but when I synch it to my iPhone it places the birthdays ahead by 1 day ex. DOB June 29 it will post it on the iPhone as June 30.

    There is another topic on this issue [here|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11746693].
    The topic is current and one user appears to have found a workaround.

  • A tip for synching problems

    Last Thursday night I put my iPhone in the dock before I went to bed and saw that it started backing-up and synching. When I got up in the morning it was still synching contacts. I watched it for a while and it never completed. I undocked the phone, put it back in and same thing, it would never complete synching contacts. I searched here and saw that some folks were have the same or similar problems. On Sunday I noticed that the synch with MobileMe was spinning and it too never completed. I could not cancel the synch from the pull down menu so I force quitted it from the Activity Viewer. I then restarted the Mac and lo the problem did not reoccur.
    So if you are having a synch problem take a look at your MobileMe synch to see if that may be conflicting with the iTunes-iPhone synch.
    Have a good evening

    Hi John,
    I am working on development an enterprise application using EJB 3.0 on Weblogic 10.
    While developing, I am keeping all my classes (from ejb's as well as web) into APP-INF/classes directory. It is working fine for Web and ejb 2.0 packages, but ejb 3.0 packages, I get the following error when I keep my ejb 3.0 beans classes in APP-INF/classes directory.
    No EJBs found in the ejb-jar file 'customer'. Please ensure the ejb-jar contains EJB declarations via an ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptor or at least one class annotated with the @Stateless, @Stateful or @MessageDriven EJB annotation.
    One solution is to keep the classes under customer ejb directory, but I wan tto keep all the classes in APP-INF/classes directory so that when using Eclipse IDE I can output all compiled sources into APP-INF/classes directory.
    Has anyone faced this situation? Any suggestions to fix this issue?

  • IPhone sync problem with iCal and Address Book

    I have a new iPhone 4 that is not syncing contacts or events. It doesn't seem to matter whether the event or contact is created in my iMac or on the iPhone. Either way, the data doesn't move. During the iPhone synch process, where iTunes tells you what is going on, syncing calendars and contacts doesn't even appear. When I had my iPod Touch, all worked well. I saw a post about resetting in iSync, etc., but when I look there, I don't even see my iPhone, and so far I can't add it. My only option there is to add a bluetooth device. So I need some help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
    Chuck

    You're welcome.
    You can't hurt anything by resetting the sync history on your Mac, and doing so may resolve the problem.
    Syncing contacts direct with a supported Address Book application and syncing calendar events direct with a supported Calendar app on your computer via the iTunes sync process has nothing to do with a MobileMe account - a trial account or otherwise. Completely separate and not related even if you are syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with your MobileMe account on your iPhone. If you are doing so with your iPhone, syncing direct with the Address Book and iCal via the iTunes sync process is not required.

  • How can I delete or transfer some (not all) Albums, Music and pics in "Photo Library" NOT purchased in iStore from my iPhone to a computer, when the original computer that did the original iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?

    The iPhone iOS 4 User Guide sees to indicate that the SYNCH function is all one way from computer to iPhone, unless it is for purchased items in iStore on the iPhone.
    1. How can I delete some (not all) Albums and Music from my iPhone when the original computer that did the iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?
    2. How can I transfer Albums and Music (not purchased from iStore on iPhone) from my iPhone to the new computer?
    3. How can I delete some (not all) pictures in my iPhone "Photo Library"  when the original computer that did the iTunes to iPhone synch is no longer available (stolen)?
    4. How can I transfer pictures in my iPhone "Photo Library" to the new computer?

    Hi wjosten,
    thanks for the "TouchCopy" software link. I have downloaded a demo copy and it will resolve my transfer of music from iPhone to the new computer. I can then delete any unwanted music on the new computer, then re-synch the updated music to iPhone.
    I am not sure about the photos.   On my iPhone, there are two photo "albums" - one called "camera roll" and the other called "photo library."  TouchCopy finds the pictures in the "camera roll" DCIM folder, and I can copy them to the new computer etc. 
    However, TouchCopy does not seem to find the "Photo Library" folder.  Any clues?

    I m trying to send a email and sms alert to people and it works fine on all systems expect on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india.
    the code i m using is right below,plz have a look and not into the problem as problem is a bit strange.
    $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" ;
                $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"UTF-8\"\n";
                $headers .= "X-Priority: 1 (Highest)\n";
                $headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: High\n";
                $headers .= "Importance: High\n";
                // Additional headers
                $headers .= 'From: Rakesh <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";

    would like to have your thoughts though.
    $headers .= "Content-Type:text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n  format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable";

  • Iphone 4 problems after 7.0.2 update--Especially with keyboard entries

    I am having serious iphone 4 problems after installing the 7.0.2 update.  Mostly it is with use of the keyboard.  Each key stroke takes about 8 seconds to show. It is truly disabling.  Apparently many others have had various problems.  The one thing the Apple Tech would tell me was that 7.0.2 cannot be uninstalled.  I have restarted & reset. Settings shows I have more that 20 free GB of space, though I don't know if that's important.
    Sure would appreciate help!  Thank you!

  • Why is my iPhones volume silent only between the hours of 8pm and 7am when the night selection isn't selected? How can I fix my iPhone 4 problem?

    Why is my iPhones volume silent only between the hours of 8pm and 7am when the night selection isn't selected? How can I fix my iPhone 4 problem?

    May be you have turned the DO NO DISTURB in your iphone settings.
    Check as below DND settings
    Settings>>Do Not Disturb
    If you are iPhone is on version iOS 5.X there was a bug which does not let the DO NOT DISTURB function properly.
    SO, its better you to latest iOS version 7.0.4, no other versions of iOS are signed by APPLE hence forth.
